1 lb white mushrooms, whole
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 tablespoons garlic, finely minced
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 cup parmesan cheese, grated
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Wipe mushooms clean and remove stems. Mince stems finely.
In large skillet over medium heat, heat oil. Saute garlic and
mushrooms until soft, and liquid has disappeared. If necessary, turn
heat down in order not to burn garlic. Add black pepper, onion
powder, cayenne pepper, and Parmesan cheese.
Once thoroughly combined, add cream cheese to skillet. Stir until
thoroughly combined, then remove from heat.
Fill mushrooms caps liberally with stuffing. Arrange mushrooms on
greased baking sheet.
Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes, until liquid forms underneath
mushrooms and top is brown and bubbly.
